Well Frigidaire has one of the worse dishwasher repair records..... beat
only I think by Asko. I had an Asko and when it broke 4 times in 6 years I
thru it away even though it was a $800 washer and they offered to supply the
defective pump if I paid for labor which would have been less than $200.
Bought myself a 3 level Maytag which isn't as quiet but holds a lot of
dishes. I would dump the troubleprone Frigidaire if it were me. I hate
washing dishes.

Also, just to mention again, in the Maytag case they do not attempt to
replace a leaking tub..... they replace the whole unit. If Frigidaire
warranty says the same in their warranty it still might be worth pursuing
despite your GE experience. They may just give you a coupon to take to the
store to get a new dishwasher. That happened with a toilet I owned.

A lot of dishwashers guarantee their tubs forever. You might double
check
yours before taking it apart. I think with the maytag, for example, if
the
tub ever leaks they replace the whole dishwasher free..... and the
warranty
is for a very long time.


I just went through the warranty thing with a GE Microwave that was 1
month
out of warranty on Labor and 5 years Parts on the tube. It was the tube
that caught fire but they wanted over and a above the cost of the whole
microwave to just verify if it was a warranty issue or not. Then they
never
showed up for the appt and they wanted the service hours to be between 8
am
and 5 pm, then they were a week late, then they called a week later and
would not leave a number to call back on. GE also told me that it would
cost me to take it to a auth. GE service center to verify that it was a
MFG
defect to be covered by parts only...... I did really like this
microwave so I gave it the all to get it fixed. Point being........
do
I think that Frigidare will replace the tub and perform the labor for free
based on the fact that a heating element came loose just under silverware
bracket be fixed for free...... I doubt it..... warranty or not.
